R7727
- Transfer superior InfoObject &1 to InfoObject &2 ?The SAP error message R7727, which states "Transfer superior InfoObject &1 to InfoObject &2," typically occurs in the context of data modeling in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA. This error indicates that there is an issue with the hierarchy or relationship between InfoObjects, particularly when trying to transfer or map data from one InfoObject to another.
Cause:
- Hierarchy Issues: The error often arises when there is a problem with the hierarchy of InfoObjects. For example, if you are trying to transfer data from a superior InfoObject (parent) to a subordinate InfoObject (child) and the relationship is not properly defined or is missing.
- Data Model Configuration: There may be inconsistencies in the data model configuration, such as missing attributes or incorrect settings in the InfoObjects.
- Data Transfer Process: The error can also occur during the execution of a data transfer process (DTP) if the source and target InfoObjects are not compatible or if the mapping is not correctly set up.
Solution:
- Check Hierarchies: Verify the hierarchy settings of the InfoObjects involved. Ensure that the superior InfoObject is correctly defined and that the subordinate InfoObject is set up to accept data from it.
- Review InfoObject Settings: Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSD1) and check the attributes, hierarchies, and relationships between the InfoObjects. Make sure that all necessary attributes are defined and that the InfoObjects are activated.
- Adjust Data Transfer Process: If the error occurs during a DTP, review the DTP settings. Ensure that the source and target InfoObjects are correctly mapped and that the transformation rules are properly defined.
- Check for Data Consistency: Run consistency checks on the InfoObjects and the data model to identify any discrepancies that may be causing the error.
- Re-activate InfoObjects: Sometimes, simply reactivating the InfoObjects can resolve issues related to changes not being recognized.
